Mud Stencils because spray paint is not good for your health. Neat stuff.

But it comes off when it rains, right?

Huh, he's in Milwaukee (so am I). I wish he would post the locations of his work, though I can guess at some of them (UWM).

Advertising is already considering using it oh god I feel so.... dirty.

I like it. I have always liked the idea that art should have a life span. I imagine some images would be pretty interesting after a mild rain.

Adbusting this sort of thing would only require a stiff-bristled broom or a spray bottle.

I like ephemeral art. I've thought of making cardboard sculptures and leaving them around town. I figure they can either be actively recycled, or turn to muck with enough rain.

Also, I'm terribly excited about the new Banksy film coming out, Exit Thru the Gift Shop.

If you're gonna do mud, why not do moss?
